# Fiscal Budget 2026 | Establish a licensing system for digital asset trading and custody, and plan to implement a cryptocurrency reporting framework

The new issue of the "Fiscal Budget" indicates that the government will submit a bill within the year to establish a licensing system for service providers involved in digital asset trading and custody; at the same time, Hong Kong has implemented a licensing system for fiat stablecoin issuers, with the first batch of licenses to be issued next month. The government and financial regulatory authorities will continue to promote licensed issuers to explore more application scenarios under compliance and risk-controlled conditions.

## Promoting the Electronicization of Bearer Bonds

Financial Secretary Paul Chan stated that to align with the bond market's application of tokenization technology, the government will provide guidelines to clarify that the register of bondholders can be stored on a distributed ledger, and will explore the electronic signing of issuance documents, as well as promote the electronicization of bearer bonds.

Regarding the framework for declaring crypto assets, the government will amend the "Tax Ordinance" to implement the OECD's crypto asset declaration framework and the newly revised Common Reporting Standard over the next two years, in line with international efforts to enhance tax transparency and combat cross-border tax evasion, and will submit a bill for amendment in the first half of the year.

## EnsembleTX Supports Round-the-Clock Settlement

In addition, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) launched the trial phase of the Ensemble project (EnsembleTX) last November, allowing industry participants to conduct real transactions with tokenized deposits and digital assets in a controlled environment; it will continue to optimize the system to support round-the-clock settlement and implement local standards to enhance Hong Kong's connectivity with other markets.

As for the HKMA's commercial data initiative, it launched the Cargox project last year, aimed at leveraging freight logistics and trade data to optimize the digital ecosystem of trade finance. The government is actively following up on the recommendations of the Cargox expert group to promote Hong Kong as a global leading trade finance center and supply chain hub
